Hi all,
I got my Samsung Galaxy S3 last week. Its my first Android so getting used to it.
Every time i take a photo and then connect to a wifi I get a notification saying 2 photos for instant upload from google plus.
I went into the google plus settings and switched off instant upload. Yet, everytime I take a photo I still get this. If i log into my google plus account on the computer sure enough the pictures are there saying waiting to be shared,
How do i stop this from happening?
If I'm in the wrong topic I am very sorry. My first ever post
Thanks

Reboot of your phone...
I have had another gallery related issue...
i have transfered photos and videos from my other phone via 'drag and drop' and these appear fine however photos that i have taken on the phone itself do not appear in any album. when i open the camera application i can see the photos in the 'review' box in the bottom corner but they just dont show in the gallery?
anyone any ideas?

Reboot for many time already
Any suggestion ?
reboot is not the answer!
my phones is only 2 days old and i would seriously hope that rebooting it after only 2 days is the answer to fix my problem.

Yes, I think so.
I just wanna know, Is anyone found this issue like me? Is this software problem? To make sure that my device is fine.
Go into settings, applications, manage applications and find the gallery under all tab and click clear data and clear cache.

hi again everyone this time i have a problem which is driving me insane. i cannot upload/post photos to facebook in any way shape or form.
when i try to post a photo to facebook i choose it and hit post and then i get a message telling me it will be uploaded. then there's a progress bar on the cell itself. the progress bar goes along just fine but then when it gets to 100% i get a message saying "facebook upload-cannot upload 1 of 2" then the progress bars appears again and again reaches 100% i get the same error message. bare in mind that i only tried to post 1 photo which is odd. is there any way to fix it?
p.s
a while back this phenomenon happened occasionally but most uploads went just fine, now it happens 100% of the time

the official Facebook app sucks.
There are two solutions:
1. Try another Facebook app e.g friends caster, and your problem will be gone forever.
2. Goto Settings - apps - Facebook - clear data. This is a temporary solution, and the issue will still reappear.
Problem solved

The thing is, the official Facebook app most times makes your think your connection is really bad, until you open your browser, and everything just loads within seconds.

since you,me and most of humanity think the facebook app is ****ty i have already turned to alternatives.
i have tried using friend caster pro for two days and was greatly disappointed when i realized you can't do some things that are a bit more facebookly sophisticated such as uploading a status with a picture or posting a picture alongside a status just post either a status or a photo.
and for as much as i remember it didn't; manage to upload my photos there too.
isn't there any good reliable alternative that matches the facebook app?

The problem is Facebook reduced the capabilities of third party apps.
Iloader uploads picture fine.
Personally, I'm not a Facebook person, so I just use m.Facebook.com on my phone which displays like the app page and loads way faster too.
Try to clear the data of the Facebook app, it should work after then

i tried clearing the data and it didn't help...
guess i'm stuck with this error for good aren't i?
So, my gallery app is so slow that it is almost unusable. If I open it, I get a bunch of blank boxes that take forever to populate. I think it has something to do with me checking 'sync picasa', 'sync facebook', etc. options when I setup the phone. Can somebody tell me how to unsync these galleries? I went to the Facebook account settings and unchecked sync pictures, but I still have a bunch of albums and it's crazy slow.
Any ideas?
the picasa sync option is in your google account section of the menu.

Yeah, I already ended up unchecking the sync pictures boxes for Facebook and for Picasa. But the albums are still there in gallery. Maybe I should clear data for gallery or something?
the blank boxes... do they every populate?

After waiting a while, and they have the picasa and facebook icons. So it's still pulling my galleries off the web, even though it is no longer synced. I also wiped the gallery app data, and they are still there. I think that is why the app is so freaking slow for me.
you could try uninstalling facebook and try running a 3rd party facebook app. I personally can't stand the stock facebook app for crap like this and the way its always running.
as far as picasa, if you use it, i'm not sure what else could be done. if you dont't use it, you can remove a lot of its functions via the pc. and that would clear that up.
I have a tip for you OP.
Turn off Wifi then try using your Gallery.
Not really a solution for the stock gallery but I've used Quickpic for as long as I can remember and it's always fast, reliable, and no sync issues to deal with. Currently I use that for normal picture management and use the stock gallery in the rare instance I need Picasa or Facebook photos synced.
Yeah I have found I have this issue if I am connected to wifi at my house.. I know the reason too. Looks like the phone is trying to connect to my networks dlna server (plex) which for whatever reason it is unable to do.. I just removed allshare and the problem is gone.. you can either rename the three or so files in your app dir (if you have root) or you can install a ROM as most of them give you an option to not install allshare.

I'm sure you've heard this plenty, but great to see you on here kejar31! I've used your roms on at least 4 or 5 phones over the last couple years. Glad you are enjoying some downtime these days .

Yep I was just under the assumption that the OP is on stock firmware.
I'm looking for a way to save my stuff and access it anywhere if possible. I keep a diarey and other senstive stuff I can't leave on my phone but want to upload text document..video and audio. I would use Google drive but I can't log out of it and issues will arise if I password protect a app. As my woman will go through them and delete What she sees fit... We r looking to split up after 10 years... What options do I have?

I read that they were shut down?
Have you considered Dropbox?
Or if you're looking for a filehost, Zippyshare?
You can also hide apps as opposed to using a password.

I've recently installed Dropbox which I've used previously on a Galaxy S5 and had the photo upload set to immediately send pics or vids to my Dropbox account. However I just can't get it work on the Honor 7. I've checked everything I can including permissions, protected app settings etc but it just won't auto-upload.
Any help much appreciated.
***EDIT***
I seem to have fixed the issue. The setting to auto-upload within Dropbox was set to 'on'. I turned it to 'off' then to 'on' again and all of a sudden it started uploading all pics and vids it hadn't uploaded previously.
Hopefully this helps anyone similarly frustrated.
With my honor 7 i have the same problem.
This method works for one time only.
It doesn't do the work automatically if you have to switch button off then on manually its kind of boring...
Better solution someone ?

You're right. This is so frustrating as I'm taking photos every day. Would be interested to know if this was an issue with earlier ROM versions? I'd thought about going down the Google Drive/Photos option but tbh I don't trust Google at all and they always make something that could be so simple so unnecessarily over-complicated
